Set a 7 minute mile goal... impossible?

Anyone have any clue how to have an actual goal in here other than total distance or time? I want to have a goal if a 7 minute mile and can't seem to figure it out.

... besides what Andy wrote, you could also create a Workout with that target, and then you will see in the Activity details whether you met the workout target or not.

The goals can't be used for that type of goal.

The personal records will work for you: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/personal-records

There is a PR for 1 mile.

If I didn't hit the target yet, why would I put it in my personal records? I was hoping for some UI/guidance when setting a goal for something I haven't hit yet.

This will probably work better. I wish they had this under goals to be honest. Thank you

That is the point of a PR. You haven't hit the target yet. The PR will show you how close you are. Exactly what a goal would show.

Creating a workout with a pace goal will not show how close you are. It might help you in keeping a higher pace. But to see if you hit 7 min for a mile you have to look at the PR.
